      abstract = {After her first two weeks observing the problems at  DecisionTech, Kathryn Petersen, its new CEO, had more than  a few moments when she wondered if she should have taken  the job. But Kathryn knew there was little chance she would  have turned it down. After all, retirement had made her  antsy, and nothing excited her more than a challenge. What  she could not have known when she accepted the job,  however, was just how dysfunctional her team was, and how  team members would challenge her in ways that no one ever  had before. In this book, the author turns his keen  intellect and storytelling power to the fascinating,  complex world of teams. Kathryn Petersen, DecisionTech's  CEO, faces the ultimate leadership crisis: uniting a team  that is in such disarray that it threatens to bring down  the entire company. Will she succeed? Will she be fired?  Will the company fail? The author's story serves as a  timeless reminder that leadership requires as much courage  as it does insight. Throughout the story, he reveals the  five dysfunctions that go to the very heart of why teams,  even the best ones, often struggle. He outlines a powerful  model and actionable steps that can be used to overcome  these common hurdles and build a cohesive, effective team.},
